Some other Facts:
·      The total population of transgenders according to the 2011 Census is 4.8 lakh; only 30,000 are registered with the Election Commission. However, estimates suggest there are 50 to 60 lakh transgenders in India but most keep it a secret to avoid discrimination.
·      Around 50 to 60 percent of transgenders have never attended schools and faced discrimination.
·      Around 57 percent are keen on getting sex-alignment surgery but don’t have money for it.
